1. Does Nitrogen Balance Surplus Done At Field Level Help To Assess Environmental Effects Of Variable Nitrogen Application In Winter Wheat?Increased nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is important as a specific consideration to decrease negative impacts of nitrogen (N) on the environment and provide better crop quality. Therefore, in many European countries N is used with restrictions due to UE regulations, set to increase NUE. This is particularly important in wheat production because this crop in EU accounts for 48% of cereal production and uses about 25% of total N-fertilizer applied. One of the methods applied to increase NUE... S.M. Samborski |
2. Using On-the-Go Soil Sensors to Assess Spatial Variability within the KS Wheat Breeding ProgramIn plant breeding the impacts of genotype by environment interactions and the challenges to quantify these interactions has long been recognized. Both macro and microenvironment variations in precipitation, temperature and soil nutrient availability have been shown to impact breeder selections. Traditionally, breeders mitigate these interactions by evaluating genotype performance across varying environments over multiple years. However, limitations in labor, equipment and seed availably can limit... B. Evers, M. Rekhi, G. Hettiarachchi, S. Welch, A. Fritz, P.D. Alderman, J. Poland |
3. Use of Remotely Measured Potato Canopy Characteristics As Indirect Yield EstimatorsPrediction of potato yield before harvest is important for making agronomic and marketing decisions. Active optical sensors (AOS) are rarely used together with other hand-held instruments for monitoring potato growth, including yield prediction. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between manually and remotely measured potato crop characteristics throughout the growing season and yield in commercial potato fields. Objective was also to identify crop characteristics that most... S.M. Samborski, J. Szatylowicz, T. Gnatowski, R. Leszczyńska, M. Thornton, O. Walsh |
4. Comparing Proximal and Remote Sensors for Variable Rate Nitrogen Management in CottonSensing and variable rate technology are becoming increasingly important in precision agriculture. These technologies utilize sensors to monitor crop growth and health, enabling informed decisions such as diagnosing nitrogen (N) stress and applying variable rates of N. Sensor-based solutions allow for customized N applications based on plant needs and environmental factors. This approach has led to notable reductions in N application rates, minimized N losses by improving N use efficiency (NUE),... A. Bhattarai, A. Jakhar, L. Bastos, G.J. Scarpin |
